Suzy Jagger, who has been in the dental field since 2009 and is a dental hygienist at Klemp Family Dentistry, went to local schools to teach kids about the importance of a healthy mouth and how to brush and floss their teeth. Last year, at Warrenton Grade School, she taught approximately 20 class- rooms from kindergarten to third grade. Klemp Family Dentistry donated new tooth- brushes, toothpaste, floss, healthy snacks and color- ing books. Each student also received their own calendar to monitor their brushing and flossing. Jagger’s special guest, the Tooth Fairy, Hayleigh Bell, a current contestant in the Miss Clatsop County competition, volunteered to come along and help Jagger with a pup- pet show to demonstrate the difference between healthy and unhealthy snacks. “It is extremely important to create these positive expe- riences at a young age,” Jag- ger said, “to get them excited about good healthy habits.” Classes help families deal with dementia The Alzheimer’s Asso- ciation Oregon Chapter is holding a two-part class, “Dementia Conversations” and “Effective Communi- cation Strategies” from 1:30 to 4 p.m. Wednesday at the Astoria Senior Center, 1111 Exchange St. The class is designed to help the partic- ipants discuss Alzheimer’s and dementia with their families. Those attending will also explore how commu- nication takes place when someone has Alzheimer’s, learn to decode the verbal and behavioral messages delivered by someone with dementia, and identify strat- egies to help connect and communicate at each stage of the disease. This class is free, but registration is required. To register, call 800-272- 3900.
